In Flames Of War
Your heavy infantry gun platoon will be armed with two of these large and powerful guns and with their firepower of 1+ and AP of 12 will destroy most anything they hit with direct fire. As artillery weapons they are not quite as good as dedicated artillery weapons and, having only two guns in the platoon means you’ll need to re-role hits. But if you do hit then the AP of 3 and FP of 2+ (remember to double your FP score for artillery fire) will take care of even the most difficult target. Grenadiers usually had horse teams to tow their 15cm sIG33 guns but if you choose Panzergrenadiers you can choose from a couple of options with either the SdKfz 11 tractor or the SdKfz 251/1 as tow vehicles.
